• self.server.chain_host
• self.server.chain_port
• self.server.ssh_transport

class ForwardServer(SocketServer.ThreadingTCPServer):
    daemon_threads = True
    allow_reuse_address = True

    def __init__(
          self, connection, handler, chain_host, chain_port, ssh_transport):
        SocketServer.ThreadingTCPServer.__init__(self, connection, handler)
        self.chain_host = chain_host
        self.chain_port = chain_port
        self.ssh_transport = ssh_transport
...

server = ForwardServer(('', local_port), Handler, 
                       remote_host, remote_port, transport)
server.serve_forever()
